The Nimbus was Denmark's most significant motorcycle and was built between 1920 and 1957 in Copenhagen by Fisker and Nielsen Ltd, manufacturers of the world's first electric vacuum cleaner. The early models, known as "stovepipes" and typed the A and B, were built from 1920 until 1934 and featured rear suspension and an inlet over exhaust valve configuration for the four cylinder engine. The model C was released in 1934 and adopted a pressed steel frame with a rigid rear end. The shaft final drive arrangement and longitudinal mounting of the four cylinder engine continued from its predecessors, but overhead cam valves replaced the previous arrangement. Nimbus were one of the first manufacturers to adopt telescopic forks. Developing between 18 and 23 bhp depending on compression ratio and cylinder head shape, the Model C was capable of a maximum speed of 75 mph and weighed approximately 380lbs. In total about 12,000 examples are believed to have been built during the models 25 year production life with approximately a third of all production being supplied to the Danish military, Police and postal services. Estimates suggest that as many as 7,000 examples survive worldwide with as many as 4,000 still registered in their home country providing a fantastic testament to the models durability and the devotion of their owners. The post war touring example offered has benefitted from a full restoration and has subsequently recorded approximately 2,000 km's. It is described by the vendor as "all working" correctly and is attractively presented with black paintwork.
